There is a difference between being fed bullshit versus someone placing bullshit in front of a person while that person then decides to eat it.
You’re right, we can’t just say people are propagandised and leave it at that. Masses, Elites, and Rebels: The Theory of “Brainwashing” is an evergreen analysis of what propaganda is and why it works so well not despite but because of the outrageous and unsubstantiated claims it makes.
Wow, you’re on a posting spree.
I’ve collected a lot of inspiring videos over the weekend and I’m finally uploading them. I’m about half-way done.
Edit: I’ll probably wait until morning to post the second half.
Looking forward to the rest; these are all awesome!
This is the promise of the internet all of us with starry eyes in the early 2000’s were hoping would come true
我的朋友们都太害怕来中国了。我希望小红书会改变那个。过去上五个月我在中国旅游。这个国家真漂亮,人们很友好,生活方便极了。过来中国。自己看。

Like I genuinely can’t imagine what these people thought China is like. I live in C*nada too and am exposed to the same propaganda he is. This country is the most Sinophobic place on Earth don’t get me wrong, the tone about China has been shrill, fever pitch and unrelenting since China arrested a few Canadian removed. But all that shit he just kind of assumed about cost of living and friendliness is all just him filling in the propaganda gaps with his own white supremacy lol.
You know… You might be right. Time for South and Central America Continent countries to build their own respective social media apps.

Americans having their personal Sputnik moment when they see on of these “peasant” holding the hand over a illuminated plate to pay for the flying train tickets.

The only good video I’ve seen filmed from someone’s truck. Good man.
Americans when they see how advanced (urban) China really is
Even the rural stuff is quite eye opening, remember a lot of Americans do live in rural communities, and the last time they got an infrastructure upgrade was when Roosevelt built a post office.
